Went out the door about 8:20am…had a pretty good run…walked at 5 miles to take a drink and then around mile 8 to get the iPod out of the back of my shirt, because it was messing up (guess they don’t like to get wet lol) It was a bit drizzly outside, but by the [...]

Made it to the gym to lift some weights, concentrated on upper body only. Chest, triceps, biceps, back, and sides. Good workout overall.
Oh I can’t wait till I have that little baby in my hand and hang it with my other one! The countdown has started (for me)….16 days and counting…
Not too shappy considering today is my off day lol…I just went out there, had Michael Jackson in my ear and ran. I did get side stiches, but was able (somehow) to manage the pain and walked, briefly only once. The weather was nice, mid 50′s sunny, with wind. Nice! That is my fastes pace [...]
Did the eliptical rider for 5 miles in about 45 min after work. Had class during lunch, so I had to work out late. My legs where tired so I didn’t want to go pound the pavement & they forecasted rain.
Weather was a bit hot for me 75 degrees, but it’s something I’ll have to gradually get used to! Didn’t have my Garmin, but did have my stop watch, so I ran the “COSI Circles” to make sure I covered the distance.
My Garmin didn’t kick in right away & running a lap around the court house kicked it back by .25 miles, soooo I don’t know exactly how far I ran, but rather just how long. 64 degrees, sunny with a slight breeze…I was hot, and my face was a bit red (for an hour or so) [...]
Ran it in 57:34 (11:31 min/mile). Overall a good run…weather was warm, but drizzling at times…no water stops, was a bit put off by that. AND we ran the majority of the race on busy roads. Other than that is was good. Brenda ‘reeled’ me in the last mile…that helped my time a lot. I [...]
The day started off with an ear ache and total feeling of yuckiness, but shortly before lunch it started getting better. The run, which was 4 miles (4.07) today, lasted 46 minutes and 14 seconds. That is a split time of 11:21, the best in months! I checked my Garmin and went all the way back [...]
So, with it being a rest day today and my sister in-law mentioning that the 1/2 is just a starting block to the full marathon I thought I’d spend some time researching the full. According to the training program that I am in and using their schedule for a beginning runner I should start my full marathon [...]
